BlackJester's Tricks 33
Okay, okay, okay! For you, my loyal readers (what's left of you), I'm a little behind on my combos. I could give you excuses, or we could just move past this and I give you a schwack of combos/interactions to shut you up. Sound good? I thought so. Today, I'll be focusing on a certain Avatar that is protected up the wazoo: {Progenitus}
Blazin' Saddles!
{Progenitus} + {Inkmoth Nexus}/{Blighted Agent} + {Blazing Shoal}
This one was lighting things up in Modern recently. Turn two, animate the Nexus, pitch a Pro-star to the shoal and presto! 11/1 infectious flier! Done!
Big Bang Theory
{Progenitus} + {Erratic Explosion}/{Explosive Revelation}/{Kaboom!}/{Riddle of Lightning}/{Heretic's Punishment}
Just make sure that you can topdeck the hyper hydra and chuck it to your nemesis' face! How, you might ask? I might answer:
{Worldly Tutor}
{Congregation at Dawn}
{Brutalizer Exarch}
...to get you started.
Knock, Knock...
who's there? Nothingness. (I suddenly have the urge to read some E.A. Poe...)
If you've got the Pro-all on top of your library, why bother with plain old direct damage? Why not forcibly remove players from the game? :o
{Progenitus} + {Door to Nothingness} + {Charmed Pendant}
Bam! You're fired! Flipping a Progenitus with the pendant would also help cover the costs of the Ultimatums ({Clarion Ultimatum }, {Brilliant Ultimatum}, {Cruel Ultimatum}, {Violent Ultimatum}, and {Titanic Ultimatum}). Flipping an Ultimatum ain't to shabby neither.
Alright, that's all I got for now. Let everyone know if you have some Progenitus tricks up your sleeve.
Cheers!
👏 bravo 👏
Although I think {progentius} would be upset that you are using him as a sacrificial lamb instead of allowing him to beat the opponents face in 😜

Pssht! He's just a 10/10. I'm trying to focus on something that makes him special. ;)
Nice work!
The last one is by far the most effective.
At no point (other than the ultimatums) would you be able to {counter} or {redirect} to save against that. :)

{bind} or {stifle} would save ya and he would have to sac the door as part of the cost so he would be S O L to do it next turn

Lol I still think in modern. Those cards are in vintage I'd guess. Sometimes have problems with blue control decks breaking combos :)

I guess my brain thinks in terms of every card printed....can't remember em all though like someone else *cough* BlackJester *cough*
Nah, I've hardly memorized every card. I mean how many are in Homelands anyway? 😜
I just good at searches.
BTW {Stifle} can break nearly any combo, (Same with {Voidslime}) I just don't see them all that much.
Voidslime was the other I was thinkin of. Stifle is good cuz of the triggered ability aspect
